Santana makes thousands of Peruvians vibrate in concert

Oh, goodness.

Lima, Peru, March 22, 2006 (Notimex).- Mexican guitarist Carlos Santana made thousands of Peruvians vibrate in a concert last Tuesday at the Monumental Stadium, east of Lima, the Peruvian media said today.

Is that a good or a bad thing? And is it legal to do that in public?
